Eczema skin condition

Eczema. Computer artwork of the epidermis (upper skin layer) of skin affected by eczema. Eczema is a skin inflammation characterised by an itchy pink rash on the skins surface, often accompanied by small fluid-filled vesicles that weep and become crusted. Many factors can trigger the rash, but all tend to produce the same histological features. Fluid accumulates in the epidermis, resulting in separation of the cells (spongiosis). Clumps of epidermal cells disintegrate to form vesicles. Blood vessels in the underlying dermis are dilated, and an immune response (white blood cells, green) can be triggered

Dermatological Dermatology Eczema Epidermal Epidermis Skin Cells Computer Artwork Condition Disorder Rash

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate details of eczema, a common skin condition that affects many individuals. The computer artwork zooms in on the epidermis, the upper layer of skin, which is visibly affected by this inflammatory disorder. The image reveals an itchy pink rash scattered across the surface of the skin. These inflamed areas are often accompanied by small fluid-filled vesicles that can rupture and form crusts. Eczema can be triggered by various factors, but regardless of its cause, it consistently exhibits similar histological features. In this illustration, we observe how fluid accumulates within the epidermis, leading to a separation of cells known as spongiosis. Clusters of these epidermal cells disintegrate and give rise to vesicles. Additionally, blood vessels in the underlying dermis become dilated while white blood cells (depicted in green) initiate an immune response against this dermatological condition. Through this visually striking representation created with advanced computer technology, Science Photo Library provides valuable insight into eczema's impact on our bodies. This medical artwork serves as a powerful tool for dermatologists and researchers studying this disease while raising awareness about its symptoms and effects on human skin health.
